McConnell proposes House to delay Trump impeachment trial

U.S. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday proposed the House of Representatives to send impeachment charges of former President Donald Trump to the Senate on January 28, according to a statement.

McConnell also asked the House to give Trump two weeks to prepare his case before the trial starts.

Trump was impeached by the House for a second historic time on January 13 for inciting an insurrection against the U.S. government at the Capitol.
